Who are Hawaiian?

Hawaiian is included in the World Genetics modern G25 database as a reference population. This page uses that reference average to compare Hawaiian with other modern populations in the database.

The label should be read as a population reference name rather than a complete description of every individual, family, language, region, or community history connected with Hawaiian.

What is Hawaiian DNA closest to?

In the World Genetics modern G25 comparison, the closest non-self match for Hawaiian is Maori. Other nearby references include Bajo, Kambera Wunga, Kambera Rindi, and Tahitian. This gives the Hawaiian profile its nearest modern genetic context inside the current reference database.
